Her experience spans organizations of all sizes and industries ranging from the small design studios to large household names like Wells Fargo, Walmart.com, TiVo, Docusign, and Blue Shield of California. She has also written and consulted for many brands, including Pilsbury, Kinkos, and Riverbed Technologies.
